Nice story liked the trans rep. changing of pronouns non binary character was very relatable. I liked how it showcased different stories. I liked the meet chute Idea. I'm on Tumblr a lot so the comments seemed relistic. I liked the discovery that love can't be like they are in the books and I do think there was self imorovment. he understand he has to be less elf centered and he there for his brother but I do agree that his response about his brothers girlfriend being a jerk was upsetting but I get he's 16 people are being way to harsh to a fictional 16 year old like I relate to this feeling judgmental. this book has a lot of agest remarks I don't love. I like the ace rep ifs not typical which it's important to show the typical but also the non typical for proper rep. just because it's stereotypical doesn't mean it's better just we need more and not just the typical. I didn't relaxis that Denver is a walking distance from what we get he's able bodied so idk how he got to 400 a week. it can definitely get up there but dam there is proviloahe there. I also think the parents should have had a vovno with him he's still under their care. I don't think he's a bad human but I agree he needs therapy. I loved the terf storylinem very relistic like play I don't like that but beca didn't turn out to be this horrible transphobic person. seems realisti. I also see how he's like the one that always vents expecting help which can be draining! it got kinda boring but I enjoyed reading it reminded me of when I was in middle school reaing romcoms and I think this is a pretty good book I do wish the MC was less judgy or at least one call out on that like one thing to judgw in your head but theres a lack of awareness thats not addressed so i understand why people are mad but they need to chill. 3/5 5/10
